Colorado Quiet Title Actions provides a step-by-step discussion of how to evaluate, investigate, file, and resolve lawsuits over real estate title problems. Useful to the novice as well as the skilled practitioner, the book includes discussions of identification of parties, whether the parties have a right to a jury trial, how to handle defunct companies, service of process, military parties, and many other issues that arise in preparing a quiet title lawsuit. Quiet title actions are unique in that they often require evidence of historic land usages going back 20 to 100 years or more. The author discusses many research techniques and sources of historical information that can make or break a quiet title case. In addition, the book includes extensive discussions of typical substantive legal issues that arise in quiet title actions. The treatment of Colorado adverse possession law is especially thorough. Other substantive law topics include prescriptive easements, public roads, boundary disputes, partition, equitable subrogation, spurious liens, and more. Other topics of interest to lawyers handling quiet title cases include statutes of limitations, working with title companies, lis pendens, working with experts, judicial foreclosures, receiverships, private condemnation, settlement strategies, trial considerations, and ethical issues. ALSO INCLUDED!: - 50 forms to use in taking a quiet title case from complaint to final decree. - A searchable CD that contains the text of the book and the forms.
